Abstract
The motion of a viscoelastic sphere (a planet), whose centre of mass moves along a circular orbit in a central Newtonian force field, is considered. Using the method of separation of motions and averaging, approximate equations are obtained which define the rotary motion of the sphere in canonical Andoyer variables, and the evolution of such motion is investigated.
